    You are basically a beginner if you are over 180lbs. Forget the fact that you cheated your way to "425"

        you never did 425. this is your opportunity to work your way to up to it again, this time you'll do it right.

        it's fine until it isn't, your health is the most important thing, ever notice how your all your priorities and problems disappear, when you get a severe cold and all you want is to be well again(question mark)

          How long will it take to work back up from 315 to 425?

            depends on how often you train that lift, genetics, how much you eat, etc. etc. but probably 14-30weeks, assuming you succeed in every attempt along the way and don't need to deload.

    Never bad to drop weight to improve form.

    You must have had an atrocious looking cat back, trying to deadlift 4 plates.

      Actually no, my back was not super horribly rounded. It had a slight bend but nothing that bad, it was mostly my upper back and raising my hips too fast before anything.

        >raising my hips too fast
        That's because your hips should be in the position they're rising to in the first place. It's not that your hips were rising too fast, they were in an inefficient position to begin with. By trying to stop them rising you're probably sticking in that inefficient position and limiting the weight you can move

          Right, I also think my glutes are just weak for some reason. I can never seem to activate them as much as I want. The whole pushing into the ground thing just works my hammies and quads more than anything.

        Engage your upper back. Too little lat and trap activation.

      That's moronic. It only makes sense if you use a suit and need to "sit back" into it to build elastic energy. Otherwise you just end up pullung your shoulders out of line with the bar
